This invention relates tonew and useful improvements in gloves. i

The invention has for an object the provision of a glove of fleecelinedor'other material and having a fiat outside member formed with athumb, a' palm back and finger portions, and an inside member stitchedto the outside member and having a palm, thumb, index and small fingerportions, these latter parts being larger than the corresponding partsof the outside member so as to produce a baggy glove, the fingersbetween the index and small fingers on the outside member beingcompleted by independent finger members secured upon these fingerportions.

For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects andadvantages thereof, reference will be had to the following descriptionand accompanying drawings, and t the appended claim in which thevariousnovel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.

In the accompanying drawings forminga material part of this disclosureFig. 1 is an elevational view of a glove constructed according to thisinvention with the inner side turned towards the front.

Fig.2 is a similar view of a modified form of glove constructedaccording to the same invention.

Fig. 3 is a front elevational view of a mitten.

Fig. 4 is an elevational view of the outer member, per se.

F ig. 5 is an elevational view of the inner member, per se.

. Figs. 6 and 7 are elevational views of the independent finger members.

Fig. 8 is a perspective view of the finger members shown in Figs. 6 and7.

Fig. 9 is a horizontal sectional view as though taken on the line 9-9 ofFig. 4, but showing the finger sections in Fig. 8 disposed upon thefinger portions of Fig. 4.

The reference numeral 10 indicates 'ener ally a flat outside memberhaving a thumb portion 11, a palm back portion 12 and finger portions 13consistin of an index fin er a l. b C3 7 small finger and two centralfinger portions, all of a size equal substantially to the pro- 1929.Serial N0. 355,680.

jected size of a specific persons hand. An inside member let forengagement upon the outside member consists ofa palm portion 12, a.thumb portion 11, an index; finger portion 13 and a small finger portion13 all of a size substantiallylarger than the projected size of the samepersons hand; As stated the index .and small finger portions 13 and 13are of materially larger width than the finger portions upon which theyengage on the outside member and this extra width is gained by formingthe finger'portions 13 and .13" from a point 15 substantially at thejunction of the central two fingers of the persons hand. The insidemember is formed with lateral cuts 15 reducing the width of the indexand the thumb portions so that parts of these portions may be bentoutwards to produce baggy fingerv portions, that is, .hollow fingers sothat ones fingers may be inserted therein. Dot and dash lines 16 in Fig.5 indicate the bending lines of the finger Portions 1.3 and 13 f '27"The cut 15 in the portion 13 is substantially horizontal since thejunction-of the index fingerwith the adjacent finger, said junctionindicated in Fig. iby. numeral 13', and the junction 13 of the centralfingers are substantially in the same horizontal plane. The cut 15 inthe small finger portion 13 slopesdownwards from the point 15 whichcorresponds with junction. 13 to point 15 which corresponds with thejunctiony13' between the small and adjacent fingers. I When the insidemember is placed upon the outer member and secured thereto the twofingers between the index finger and the small finger need inside fingersections to complete them. In Figs. 6 and 7 such finger sections havebeen shown namely finger section 17 for engagementupon the fingeradjacentthe index finger in Fig. 4, and section 18 for engagement uponthe finger adjacent the small finger. It should be noticed that thesefinger sections are of greater widththan the finger portions in Fig. 4so that when they are sewed upon these sections they producea hollowinto which ones fingers may be inserted.

. The finger sections 17 and 18 are first sewed together along theirbottom edges for about one third of the lengths of these edges, the lineof proposed sewing being indicated by numerals 17 and 18 in Figs. 6 and7, respectively. Fig. 8 shows these parts in connected condition andnumeral 23 indicates the stitches along the lines 17 and 18. The joinedparts 17 and 18 are next placed with the stitches 23 at right angles tothe junction 13", and then part 17 turned to the left and sewn upon theleft of the central finger portions 13 and part 18 turned to the rightand sewn upon the right of central finger portions 13. The fingerportion 18 is formed with a bottom extension 18 so as to extend the fulllength of the right finger of the two central finger portions to thejunction 13'.

In Fig. 1, a glove has been shown made from the parts illustrated inFigs. 4 to 7 in elusive and in which a wrist band 19 has been added. Aportion of this figure has been shown broken away to illustrate that theouter member has integral finger port-ions while the inner member hasthe independent sections 17 and 18 sewed thereon as just described. InFig. 2 a modified form of glove has been shown in which the wrist band19 is of quite large size and reinforced by a stiff leather piece 20.This figure also clearly shows the finger sections 17 and 18 stitched asat 21 to the inside member 14.

In Fig. 3 a modified form of glove has been illustrated which consistsof a palm portion 12, a wrist portion 19, a thumb portion 11, an indexfinger portion 13 and a portion 22 for covering all of the other fingersexcept the index and thumb.

While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of myinvention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to theprecise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to allchanges and modifications coming within the scope of the invention asdefined in the appended claim.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by United States Letters Patent is:

A method for manufacturing a glove which consists in securing an innerglove member having a palm, thumb, index and small finger portions uponan outer glove member having a palm back, thumb, and four fingerportions, and thereafter securing 111-- dlependent inner second andthird finger sections comprising two pieces, one of which has adownwardly extending portion, onto the inner glove member and onto thefinger portions of the outer glove section between the index and smallfinger portions, by first sewing said independent finger sectionstogether along their bottom edges for about one-third of the lengths ofthose edges, and placing these joined parts with the stitches at rightangles to the junction at the base of the second and third fingers ofthe outer glove member, and thereafter turning the independent fingersection having no downwardly extending portion towards the index fingerand stitching it upon the edge of the central finger portions of theouter member which is nearest the index finger, and turning theindependent finger portion having a downwardly extending portion towardsthe small finger and stitching it upon the edge of the central fingerportions of the said outer member which is nearest the small finger, thefinger portions of the inner glove member and the independent fingersections being of greater widths than the corresponding parts of theouter glove member, and the finger portions of the inner member havinglateral nger side portions bendable to produce a baggy structure, theparts being secured together to present a baggy structure.

In testimony whereof I have afiixed my signature.
